Rookie quarterbacks like Trevor Lawrence and Zach Wilson should start immediately and play all 16 games to learn
I'm a believer in putting those guys in right away, put [Zach] Wilson in, put [Trevor] Lawrence in and let them play. Let them see how fast these defenses are. They're going to figure it out a lot sooner. I would like to get that [28 interceptions] record off my resume, and if Trevor Lawrence wants to break that this year, I am for it. But you got to be a 16-game starter to do it.

Aaron Rodgers decided that he was going to be a diva and take Blake Bortles' job. [Bortles] got cut, Aaron Rodgers un-retired. I know deep down I was like he's obviously gonna come back, but I also believed that maybe he would actually retire.
Tennis is a lifestyle or a leisure, not a real sport
I would say that tennis is more of an event. Yeah. Tennis is a lifestyle. Not really a sport. If you pick up a sport after you retire, that's not a sport. The thing they always say like, 'Hey, take up golf and tennis because you can play it for your whole life.' Well, that's not a sport. It's a leisure.
The Green Bay Packers are the least desirable team to play for in the NFL
The Green Bay Packers are a classless organization by cutting Blake Bortles. Probably least desirable team to play for in the NFL, according to Aaron Rodgers, not me, Aaron Rodgers. If you're a free agent listening to the show right now, Will Compton, don't you dare go to the Green Bay Packers because they will mistreat you.

View profileI realized early that to get an edge I had to out-prepare everyone because I couldn't out-throw or out-run anyone
I came to the realization that I couldn't out-throw anybody. I couldn't throw it 85 yards down the field like a Brett Favre. I couldn't outrun anybody clearly. I realized that to get an edge, I had to try to out-prepare anybody. I told myself that I was [working harder]. The main people I was trying to outwork was our opponent. It gave me confidence to go full speed ahead.
The quality of a spiral is overrated; wobbly touchdowns count just the same
Every one of my records is getting broken... but nobody's throwing more wobbly touchdowns than me. Okay. I mean, the spiral is overrated, right? As long as it gets there. And the good thing about the wobbly pass, a lot of dropped interceptions. Because these guys playing defense, a perfect spiral right in their hands they're going to catch, but a wobbly pass, there's a good chance they're going to drop it.
